Free: pillow case, sheet and duvet cover (Ambleside LA22) Clean but a wee bit musty (we don't currently have a washing machine, or we would have washed before collection). Orange-y pink colour - see photo!

4h

Free: screens (to divide rooms, for example) (Ambleside LA22) Three different ones (see photo), you can take one or all three. Useful if, for example, 2 people need to share a bedroom who don't know each other very well. Only top halfs are visible in the photo as there is currentl other stuff stored in front of them. You can take one, two, or all!

4h

Free: 2 sleeping bags with zips (Ambleside LA22) Not dirty but a wee bit musty - we don't currently have a washing machine or we would have washed them before collection. But they are intact and could be used either as sleeping bags or as an extra eiderdown or covering. As can be seen in the photograph, one is patterned in yellow and the other in orange.

4h

Free: child's trolley with bricks (Southside EH8) Gifted The bricks have numbers and letters on them. The handle has been removed for ease of carrying, but the small plastic bag contains the screws to put it back!

18d

Free: Single futon (Southside EH8) Gifted Beige, quite elderly but seldom used, a few marks due to having been used as a shelf for games, but serviceable and comfortable

28d

Free: Two vases (Upton CH49) Gifted As in photo - left-hand is glass, right-hand ceramic BUT it has a small chip on the edge at the back, which I had never noticed before, so if you don't mind a small imperfection... No obligation to take both. BUT they'd need to be collected by 12 noon Monday 29th, with apologies for short notice, as the house is being sold.

2y

Free: Fridge (Upton CH49) Gifted White, works, not new. But needs to be collected at very precise time! Monday 29th between 10AM and 12 noon (between breakfast and leaving the house for ever!) However, if this doesn't work, I could try asking a neighbour to open the house for you, but I would prioritise someone who can collect on the Monday morning. I won't have time to defrost, but it's not very icy, so it shouldn't melt if you were nearish?

2y

Free: double duvet with cover, and potentially matress (Upton CH49) Expired Elderly but still comfortable. I'm afraid I won't be able to wash as our washing machine is broken. Would need collection on Monday 29th between 10 and 12, but if that's not possible I could see if a neighbour could open for you. But would need to prioritise someone who can collect on Monday, as we will not be in the house again before sale goes ahead.

2y

Free: documents about autism and running a charity (Upton CH49) Expired I think this may be a bit unlikely, but I know we're encouraged to post anything just in case!

2y

Free: surgical boot (used) (Upton CH49) Expired This is a bit of weird one, but I broke my ankle a couple of months ago and was told to wear this for 6 weeks then throw it away. This seems a terrible waste, so I thought I would offer it just in case it was of any use to someone with an ankle injury who hadn't been given a boot like this. My ankle is pretty much OK now!
